Shadow Warrior betas released!

Devolver has updated the free Shadow Warrior version on Steam to also include two beta versions, one seems quite old and has the older ninja sprite and all different levels from what I can tell and is something I've never seen playable before.

This is amazing. Digging through the 1996 beta in SWPBuild, there are TONS of maps which look amazing, like almost final as is, and which are either non existant in the final game or completely different.

!mine.map, !flood.map, !prison.map are what caught my eyes the most so far

I think its awesome they released old builds of the game. I played a bit of the 1997 beta. They had the duke mighty foot asset in the game at that time. I'm glad they removed it, it feels clunky. Looking forward to playing more when I get home.

Fred's tweet mentioned concept art and other media too. Will they be released as bonus on Steam or just as .zip files somewhere?

I'm not sure but I would assume so, all I did was email Fred and Nigel to get them in contact with each other a little over a week ago to get the ball rolling.
I hope there's more on the way but the Alpha being released is chock-full of cool stuff as it is, it's a good start!
